  • Nice! It took me a couple tries too, but I got one soon after a big storm uprooted a bunch of trees.

  • Nice! I recently relistened to an episode of the Michael Brooks Show where they discussed incorporating secular spirituality into socialist movements.

    One of my faves about atheopaganism was The Placebo Magick Podcast. Iirc, the host worked in the tech industry and left to live in a tiny house and farm. It wasn't focused on politics, but I think the host unlocked all the episodes after it ended.

  • For wildlife gardens with native plants, leaving the stems is best practice if not in a fire prone area. From the National Wildlife Federation:

    Leave seed heads and flower stalks. Like fallen leaves, the stems and seed heads of perennials can be essential habitat for insects—especially some overwintering native bees—long after flowers have faded, says Mizejewski. Come spring, “cut the stems down to 10 or 12 inches, and native bees will nest inside.” If you prune back shrubs such as forsythia or blackberry, whose stems have hollow or pithy cores, bundle those on your property for more bee nesting sites, says Cane. Mizejewski points to an added bonus of saving seed heads until spring: “They will attract goldfinches, chickadees and other songbirds you can enjoy watching all winter.”

    There is nothing that stands out to me as unmaintained, only not maintained in the way people are used to. During spring cleanup and throughout the growing season, invasive species can be removed (and many tend to stick out in the winter as well).

  • Solarpunk: Fashion Trajectory and Evolution into Neo Frutiger Aero | XDF

    Jump

  • I'm with you there! DIY, visible mending, and upcycling is more my speed.

    I did find their commentary about evolving existing cyberpunk style into solarpunk interesting, even though I feel neo frutiger aero is too sterile. Not enough discussion of what you're getting at either, for sure, but could be a good hook for the high fashion enthusiasts.

  • I've been on a CGRP inhibitor (erenumab) since September that took me from neverending to chronic, but it only lasts for three weeks at a time. The fourth week before the next dose is a total wash.

    Triptans only work during the first three weeks, so I use diphenhydramine and caffeine with a strong ginger tea chaser to cope 😵‍

  • New Guidelines Call on Doctors to Take IUD Insertion Pain Seriously

    Jump

  • Same, had one inserted over a decade ago. No one said anything about pain medication. Drove myself home and felt every imperfection in the road. About a week of severe cramping.

    Went for the follow up and the gyno adjusted its position without warning. When I cried out, she told me the pain would subside in a few days. It didn't, so I got it removed a month later.

    Glad to see the tides are changing 🙌

  • Statement on "Negative Utilitarianism," "Efilism," and "Antinatalism,"

    Jump

  • These, or their cousin "we could lose a few billion people," pop up on my instance from time to time. I'm not amenable to either, but I do understand the feelings of grief behind them. Myself, I adopted a secular practice in order to stay grounded, because it's easy to fall into the pit... comment sections with debate lords proclaiming why whatever is futile, people raging and posturing or possessed by long dead philosophers, all while the machine gobbles up the world. Soul crushing.

    Grief and its companions fear, anger, despair, are blinding and consume the larger liberatory project. The sense of powerlessness these states foster breeds the need to control, and it's easier than people want to admit to slip. I feel similarly about the tendency to dehumanize. I always try to be empathetic, reminding myself that those thoughts once crossed my mind, the visceral frustration I once felt, but it's disheartening.
